The FOFUS Blog & News.
What's actually changing in 3D printing, AI 3D model generation, 3D scanning and printed care devices — written for India, from Kerala. No hype feeds, no reshuffled press releases: every article is grounded in dated, checkable announcements and ends at an action — order a print, generate a model, book a scan.

NewsroomThe day in 3D printing, AI 3D generation and scanning — dated items, sourced, ending at print action.
Read → AI 3D DesignTripo's 2-second engines, Microsoft's open-source TRELLIS.2, Tencent's hosted Hunyuan3D — a year of releases that mattered, then the engine ladder you can actually use on FOFUS Make3D today: ₹120–₹160 per model, 25% coins back, print-ready STL included.
Read the update → 3D PrintingCreality's 420mm Ender-3 V3 Mega, Spain's first AI-native printer factory, a 14-inch resin monster, groundbreaking on five 3D-printed Habitat homes in Virginia — and an FDA clearance for a 3D printed medical device. One page, the whole month.
Read the brief → 3D ScanningPolycam opened dimensionally-accurate capture to 800 million non-LiDAR iPhones in January; 2026 studies validated phone photogrammetry to sub-4 mm on body scans. When a phone scan is good enough — and when you still want a pro studio pass.
Read the dispatch → Human CareA CMC Vellore study printed a partial-hand prosthesis for about $20 in materials. EMG-controlled printed hands hit IEEE proceedings. Kerala has its own low-cost hand startup. Where printed prosthetics really stand — and what FOFUS can (and won't claim to) do.
